Gear Weight Calculator
« on: August 18, 2009 »
I've been reading Chris Townsends book on backpacking and he spoke about a piece of software for cataloging gear for weight calculations. Basically you can enter all your gear with weights and then make lists and see how heavy your pack will be. I've been messing with trying to sort out a kit for ultralight weekends but I've been doing it all in spreadsheets which is annoying.

Software is here:

I should mention that I couldn't get it to work properly on WinXP (it wouldn't keep categories) but it seems like others have been able to get it to work fine.
